president obama's meeting with house speaker john boehner this hour. john, what should we expect? >> we expect the meeting to last something less than an hour between the speaker and the president of the united states. a republican leadership aide told me the meeting is taking place because a shakeup is required in budget talks, given the inflexibility of the white house. question is going to be, what is that shakeup? the speaker wants and republicans have been the demanding more details from the white house on potential cuts and entitlement programs. the white house has shown no willingness to go further than they've already gone and they are winning this argument in terms of public opinion. so, another possibility for a shakeup is for republicans to some how give ground and we'll see whether that happens on decoupling top tax rates, 98% of american families. we're going to have to see what happens and if we hear from john boehner and president obama after this meeting which will probably only do if some breakthrough occurs. >> all right, john, thank you. keep us posted. we will
